Havelock Court welcomes community for care home open day

Staff and residents at Havelock Court Bupa Care Home on Wynne Road, Stockwell are getting ready to celebrate this year’s care home open day – a national calendar day when care homes in Great Britain are encouraged to open their doors and invite their local community and the wider public to see what enjoyable and stimulating places they can be to both live and work in.

It encourages homes to celebrate a different theme each year, with key values at its heart: friendship, making connections and celebrating older and vulnerable people.

This year’s theme is celebrating the role of arts in care and the Stockwell home is inviting people to join them on Friday 28th June between 2 pm - 8 pm.

At Havelock Court this year, guests can enjoy fun activities for everyone, including outdoor games, Brazilian dancers from Stockwell Community Centre, street dancers and a steel band. Food and refreshments will include a BBQ, fruit cocktails, homemade cakes and a selection of hot and cold drinks.

Gill Kerry, home manager at Havelock Court, said: “We’d love members of our community to come along and help us to celebrate care home open day – it’s a fantastic opportunity to bring people together, help build new friendships and celebrate older people in the community.

“We are looking forward to providing a taster of the extensive range of activities and events we have available at the home to increase the well-being of residents. We’ll also be on hand to offer an insight to anyone considering a move or a career alongside our passionate staff here at the home.”
